Quote by Golan Vaknin

“This book was born one night when Daddy and I were about to read a bedtime story and we realized we had run out of new books. Instead of reading the same old books again, we went back in time to one of the most exciting adventures we’ve had together. So, what you are about to read is based on a true story. At least, a part of it is. For real!”

“The feelings or imaginings which tend to prevent the mind from entering into the heart and so attaining to pure prayer, or prayer of the heart, are either those which are the result of sin, or an attraction towards sin, or those which make us think we are being drawn towards good actions or a real meeting with God himself, but which in fact do not lead to God. That is why the Fathers warn monks even against images that seem to be good. They exhort them not to rely on any kind of imagination or impression. Moreover the Fathers consider thought, even theological thought, to be a no less dangerous obstacle to the mind's entry into the heart. They must be watchful not to rest in theological thinking, or to slip into it, when they are moved to prayer or while they are praying. Thinking about God interrupts direct encounter with him. By theological thinking a man becomes shut in on himself.”

“That was the power of radio at its height. The Shadow, we were assured at the beginning of each episode, had "The power to cloud men's minds." It strikes me that, when it comes to fiction in the media, it is television and movies which so often cloud that part of our minds where the imagination moves most fruitfully; they do so by imposing the dictatorship of the visual set.”
